They are both part of the thriving Cottesloe Mums group, who meet regularly at the Cottesloe Scout Hall on Eric St.

“For me, Cottesloe feels like a very young community because there’s so many families,” Mrs Klopper, mum to three-year-old Zac, said.

Ms Butterfield, originally from Maastricht in The Netherlands, said she and her husband lived in New Zealand before deciding to settle in the area to raise Oscar, 3.

“We were tossing up between Melbourne and Perth and based on the weather we chose here,” she said.

Besides Cottesloe’s amenity and weather, 95 per cent of children are on track in their early years, 81 per cent of females finished Year 12 or equivalent, median weekly family income is $3563 and there is high socio-economic advantage.
